Dispose of it whenever it suits me.

Every recycling centre is different, and so is every path to automation. wiegon supports local authorities and waste management companies every step of the way: from the initial digital access system, through hybrid operation, to a fully autonomous recycling centre that operates around the clock without staff.

Digital

The transition to digital waste management doesn’t have to be radical. It needs to be the right fit. The entry-level phase establishes all the technical requirements for the efficient operation of a recycling centre without turning the usual workflow upside down.

Residents can use their digital access credentials from day one, even in conventional, staff-operated facilities. Entrances and exits are controlled digitally, processes are optimised, and waiting times are reduced. And where appropriate, the recycling centre can be specifically enabled for autonomous use at this stage, for example to manage peak and high-demand periods. Your individual fee schedules are stored within the system, ensuring legally compliant billing from the outset.

Hybrid

This upgrade seamlessly integrates staffed and autonomous operations. Citizens’ payments are recorded without omission in both modes and held in reserve for settlement. Reliable, transparent and delivering greater efficiency for citizens and staff.

Fully automated self-service stations take control in autonomous mode, supplemented where necessary by a trust-based payment system. Access is convenient via card or app. All processes begin with a single identification step. Billing is cashless: via a fee notice or a digital customer account. For citizens, this means maximum convenience; for local authorities, a significantly reduced administrative burden.

Autonomous Recycling Center

The fully autonomous system transforms the recycling centre into a modern facility that operates round the clock, regardless of opening hours or staff availability.

wiegon equips the recycling centre with everything it needs: guidance and monitoring systems, intercoms, cashless payment systems and AI-supported incorrect disposal management all work together seamlessly. Residents can drop off their recyclables autonomously at any time of day they choose: conveniently, securely and without waiting. Local authorities and operators retain full control at all times: all processes can be digitally controlled, monitored and evaluated either directly on-site or via a central control centre.
